SNORP REVIEW:

The alcohol to juice ratio is a bit off but just add some more juice until you get it the strength margarita you want (I prefer adding grapefruit juice but it depends what flavors you prefer). The mix of juices is really tasty so maybe just add more of all three for a nice balance of citrus flavors.

These are especially tasty paired with chicken fajitas or chips & salsa. They are too strong, but double the juice (use fresh-squeezed if you can) and you will have some of the best margaritas you've ever tasted. YUM!!!!!

I am just a social drinker you know a margarita with a meal is wonderful so i realize that i don't get all that much alchohol as i probably average two mixed drinks a week but the ratio to fruit juice and alchohol in this drink makes me wonder if it is a suicide potion instead of drink--i mixed it using less of both alchohols than in recipe and still was knocked off my feet in a very few minutes and was the sickest i have ever been in my life

Ah, the unassuming envelope of onion soup mix. It's more than just for onion soup (or dip). It adds tremendous flavor (and convenience) in all these recipes.
